Unattended MSI Builds using ANT

This example invokes the MM Batch File however you could also invoke the correct PPWIZARD command directly (see the debug file in the "out" directory):

<target name="makemsi">
    <exec dir="${msi.source.dir}" executable="${makemsi.dir}\mm.cmd" os="Windows XP,Windows 2000" failifexecutablefails="true">
        <arg line="mymmfile.MM"/>
    </exec>
</target>
